The comment of parameters used for tracefs_tracer_set() says:

'
 * tracefs_set_tracer - function to set the tracer
 * @instance: ftrace instance, can be NULL for top tracing instance
 * @tracer: The tracer enum that defines the tracer to be set
 * @t: A tracer name if TRACEFS_TRACER_CUSTOM is passed in for @tracer
'

tracefs_tracer_set(inst, tracer, t); @tracer is enum and @t is tracer
name. this is not important.
